Yes, there is a way you can move emails from Windows Live Mail to Outlook on another computer. You need to export your emails from Windows Live Mail as Microsoft Exchange format, and then import them to Outlook using a thumb drive or a network connection. Here are the steps you can follow:
On your old computer, open Windows Live Mail and click on File > Export email > Email messages.
Choose Microsoft Exchange as the format and click Next.
You will see a confirmation message. Click OK to proceed.
Choose Outlook from the Profile Name drop-down menu and click OK.
You will see a Select Folders dialog box. You can choose to export all folders or selected folders. Click OK when you are done.
The export process will start and you will see a progress bar. Wait until it is completed and click Finish.
The exported emails will be saved in a folder named Outlook under your Documents folder. You can copy this folder to a thumb drive or a network location.
On your new computer, open Outlook and click on File > Open & Export > Import/Export.
Choose Import from another program or file and click Next.
Choose Outlook Data File (.pst) and click Next.
Browse to the location where you copied the Outlook folder and select the Outlook.pst file. Click Next.
Choose the folder where you want to import the emails. You can also select the option to Include subfolders. Click Finish.
The import process will start and you will see a progress bar. Wait until it is completed and click OK.
You will see your imported emails in Outlook under the folder you chose.
